A Norwalk event Saturday showcased the power of women supporting women.
Over 40 local women-owned businesses participated in the pop-up event.
Rebel's owner says it's important to highlight these companies.
""It's about just boasting up, lifting up other women. And giving other small businesses some visibility, like I wish I had when I was just starting out," says Ann Grossman.
Entrepreneurs agree.
"Only two percent of venture capital funding actually goes to female-founded businesses, So, we're incredibly passionate about supporting other female founders," says Elizabeth Buffone, co-founder of
Pointina Stitch Club.
"Not only are we here to get further exposure for our own businesses, but we're here to support each other," says Kate Lavigne, owner of
Flutes and Foam.
